Family And Friend Reunion! Wooohooo! Hajimes Been Waiting For This For A While. Here You Are, Buddy!

Family and friend reunion! Wooohooo! Hajime’s been waiting for this for a while. Here you are, buddy!

And of course, our beloved SCP Nagizuru must come with! Doesn’t matter if he’s an all powerful, world ending cosmic horror, you simply must introduce him to your parents, Hajime!

Also, if you haven’t seen it yet, look at this!!!

The red lights began flashing and the sirens were blaring in their warnings. Panicked screams and shouts were audible outside the door. Frantic footsteps thundered by. Who they belonged to, he didn’t know.

By all means, he should have been terrified. It was a containment breach in a place that held some of the universe’s most dangerous creatures and objects.

But instead, Hajime was elated. He threw a chosen outfit on in the bathroom, brushing his hair and making sure everything looked in place. “It’s finally happening. And it’s in the morning, too! We can be out all day!” he exclaimed to his roommate who was waiting on the bed.

He heard a soft laugh from beyond the door. “Indeed. There is plenty of time for us to… make ourselves scarce. And I am most eager to meet my beloved’s family.”

Hajime reached out through the crack in the door to point vaguely in the direction he thought the SCP was in. “And remember! No non-human things for this visit! No shapeshifting, no summoning, no teleporting within sight, no inverting, nothing that a regular human couldn’t accomplish.”

That made Nagizuru laugh more. “I recall your instructions perfectly, Hajime. I shall hide my abilities when in the presence of your friends and family.”

Hajime waggled his finger. “Ah, ah. No trying to use loopholes. Don’t hide them from just my friends and family. Everyone.”

“You know me well. But alright, no one shall know,” Nagizuru relented.

Hajime sighed in relief as he heard the affirmation. He didn’t want to think of the headache a supernatural occurrence would cause for his hometown. He took one last look at his reflection, nodded, then exited. “Okay, I’m ready. Can you teleport us in an area where no one is? So we can slip in easily?”

Nagizuru’s smile widened as he stood up from the mattress in his casual attire. “Of course! Can’t let anyone know our little secret, can we? Just come here and it will be done.”

The brunette did so, approaching the Apollyon class SCP with no fear. He got close, feeling the creature’s arms wrap around his back and embrace him tight. He closed his eyes, feeling the strange sensation soon after. Then, he heard the sounds of cars and muted conversations. Sounds that were typical of a residential area.

Hajime opened his eyes and smiled excitedly. He backed away from Nagizuru just enough to look around. “The park behind the library? Smart choice. I used to come here and read by myself after school. It’s peaceful.”

The SCP allowed him to take a few steps away to look around. “I felt that this was the most ideal place to go. Hidden, and a place that you hold positive memories of. So it was an obvious choice.”

Hajime felt his cheeks redden. He slapped them a few times to try and regain composure. “A-anyways, it’s not far away from the house. I remember the way well.”

“Lead the way, my dear,” Nagizuru purred, clasping their hands together.

The battle to control his blush was a fierce one, but he managed to get it down enough so that he could walk around without anyone noticing. If anything, people were more intrigued by the man with the long white hair, so Hajime mostly went unnoticed. That suited him just fine, leaving him to focus on navigating them to his house.

After a few minutes, they arrived at his childhood home. He hadn’t been back here since he went off to college a year ago. He was happy to see it had not changed at all. He took a moment to send a text to a few of his friends, informing him of his return to the town before pocketing it again. He brushed his hair back, glanced over to Nagizuru to make sure he was also presentable, then finally rang the doorbell.

Familiar voices spoke inside along with footsteps approaching. Then the door opened, revealing Hajime’s mom. She beamed with happiness as she recognized her son. “Hajime! What a wonderful surprise! Come in, come in!” She stepped aside with pep in her step, allowing the two to enter.

Nagizuru kept close and quiet, looking around and observing the home’s decorations. He followed the brunette through the house, taking a seat next to Hajime when they ended up at the kitchen table.

“Well, well! I didn’t expect to see you today! How have you been?” Mr. Hinata said as he sat down across from his son. Mrs. Hinata sat across from Nagizuru, giving him a wide smile.

Hajime nodded with a smile. “Yeah, our place of work is taking a break from operations. So we figured we could stop by to visit. And so you could meet my coworker.”

Then Nagizuru spoke with a teasing grin. “Just coworkers? You wound me, Hajime. Surely you jest.” The white-haired man grabbed ahold of one of Hajime’s hands. “To me, we are far closer. And I think you know this as well, though you have a harder time saying it aloud.”

“Ah, so you are the one he spoke of in his letters. We meet at last,” Mr. Hinata directed at Nagizuru. “Tell us about your work with Hajime! Well, as much as you are allowed at least.”

Hajime sent a silent prayer of thanks that his family didn’t try to pry into the secrecy of his position. It would be a hassle to try and dodge the subject had they been nosy. But his relief turned into something else once Nagizuru began talking.

“Hajime and I have been working together at a location that we can’t disclose for reasons. But we were paired up and grew close while there. He has been nothing but kind, generous, and understanding with me, so it was not hard to fall for him. I consider each day we are together a blessing, and I am so immensely thankful.”

Mrs. Hinata smiled so wide, clearly overjoyed. “Oh, that’s beautiful! I’ve never heard such passionate declarations of affection! Well,” she grinned as she squeezed her husband’s hand. “Besides his.”

Mr. Hinata laughed with some color on his cheeks. “Anyways, I agree with my wife. Your speech is quite flattering for our son. Please keep treating him well for us while you are at work.”

Hajime’s cheeks blossomed with color. “Mom! Dad! Stop! This is embarrassing!”

Nagizuru patted him on the head. “It’s okay, Hajime! We have your parent’s blessings! Isn’t that wonderful?”

“Is there anything that can make you flustered?” the brunette muttered as he sat there, letting the other mess with his hair.

“Oh, I am unsure. Feel free to shower me with compliments to try and find out,” Nagizuru teased, leaning his head on Hajime’s shoulder.

“Oh, you two are precious. Hajime, do try and keep a hold of this wonderful gentleman,” Mrs. Hinata cooed with adoration.

“I couldn’t get rid of him even if I tried,” Hajime replied. His parents nodded approvingly, not at all getting that it was literally impossible to get rid of the cosmic horror on him.

The moment was interrupted by knocks on the door. Ones he recognized instantly. “Sounds like Kaz is here. And I bet he brought Fuyuhiko and Chiaki along,” Hajime guessed. He poked Nagizuru’s cheek. “Up we get. Let’s let them in.”

“If we must,” the SCP said with a faux resigned tone.

“We will get some snacks ready for you all. Don’t worry about a thing,” Mr. Hinata assured, he and his wife standing up along with the other two. They got to work, grabbing food and plates from the kitchen. So Hajime decided to give them some room by exiting the room to give them space. Nagizuru followed close behind, keeping a tight hold on his hand. With his free one, he opened the door, nearly losing his balance with a sudden side hug. The faint smell of oil and grease told him who it was even before the hugger could get a word in.

“Geez Kaz. One would think you missed me or something,” Hajime stated with a grin.

Kazuichi pulled away, also grinning wide. “I can’t help it! My soul friend has returned from his mysterious location! Gotta celebrate!”

“Rein it in, Kaz. You are gonna break his ribs at this rate,” Fuyuhiko warned, reaching out and grabbing Kazuichi’s collar to yank him backwards.

“Hey! Don’t do that, man! And besides, I know you are excited to see him, too!” Kazuichi whined, doing his best to straighten his collar again.

“That might be true. But I know how to control myself. Something you should bother to learn,” Fuyuhiko shot back.

The blonde and pink-haired men then began squabbling, getting absorbed in their argument. That certainly hadn’t changed, which Hajime was happy to see. Then, he felt a small tug on his sleeve. Looking over revealed Chiaki, who sleepily smiled up at him. “Welcome back. We missed you a lot.”

The brunette pulled her in for a side hug. “I missed you all, too.”

Chiaki leaned into the hug before looking over his shoulder. “Is this the one you talked about?” she asked as she gazed at SCP in disguise.

To which she got a greeting from the creature himself. “Good day to you all. I do hope every one of you is well. I have been most eager to finally meet my beloved’s companions from before our first encounter.”

Kazuichi and Fuyuhiko paused their banter once they heard the new voice. “Oh yeah! Now we get to meet the guy! Nice to finally see ya in person! Man, Hajime was right about your hair. Must take hours to brush!”

Fuyuhiko stepped forward, crossing his arms and staring hard at the newcomer. “What’s with your speech? It’s way more elegant than most nowadays. You not from around here?”

Nagizuru chuckled. “Something like that.”

That intrigued Kazuichi and Fuyuhiko, who stepped inside the house and began pelting the SCP with questions. Nagizuru didn’t seem to mind, answering with a smile and evading certain details. Seemed like he was fitting in well enough.

Hajime was prepared to watch how long this would go on for, but he felt another tug on his sleeve. Chiaki was trying to get his attention, gesturing to the side room. He understood, following her into it. They stood in the corner, far enough away from all others in the house to talk without fear of eavesdropping.

“Is something wrong?” Hajime began, curious as to why his friend had pulled him away.

Chiaki glanced back to the doorway before looking into Hajime’s eyes. “That man you brought, he’s different.”

The phrasing of the statement confused him. “Well, I suppose he is different. His hair is insane and his mannerisms can be weird.”

His friend shook her head. “That’s not what I meant. Hajime, please be honest with me. He’s not human, is he?”

Hajime wasn’t able to stop the shock from his expression or his voice. “Wh-what? How…?”

Chiaki brought a finger to her chin. “I think only I noticed. To me, it seems like he’s not entirely genuine in his words and movements. Like he’s something acting like a human, but isn’t quite pulling it off. Well, I feel he could fool most people. But I can read people pretty well, so I saw the signs.”

Hajime groaned, rubbing his hand through his hair. “Okay, I’ll admit you are right on the money. But please don’t tell anyone. This can’t get out to the public.”

Chiaki reached up and patted him on the head. “Of course I won’t. I can keep secrets, you know this.” She lowered her hand, a more serious expression present. “I’ll drop it completely if you answer this one question. Are you safe with him?”

Hajime breathed a sigh of relief, nodding confidently. “I have never been more protected and safeguarded in my life.”

That satisfied his friend, as she relaxed her expression. “Good. Now, I’ll have to test his gaming abilities.”

That triggered a laugh. “Right now? You are insatiable. But I’m not going to deny that I’m curious. Let’s go test it out.”

Chiaki nodded with a determined expression. She then left the room, off to the living room to set up her gaming system for their session. It left him alone for the first time in a while, allowing him to think.

For about ten seconds. He felt a body appear behind him suddenly and warm arms wrapped around his midsection. “Something on your mind, my dear?” Nagizuru whispered in his ear.

Hajime leaned back into the embrace. “What happened to your conversation with Fuyu and Kaz?”

Nagizuru nuzzled into the brown hair. “I excused myself and teleported once out of sight. They will be only a little confused, but not terribly suspicious.” One pale hand found his and settled on top of it. “But your other friend, however, has quite a sharp eye. I am most impressed.”

“You noticed? Please don’t do anything. She promised she would keep it a secret,” Hajime pleaded, a hint of desperation bleeding in.

Nagizuru softly laughed. “Relax. I had no intention of doing anything. I can sense how much you trust her. So I shall put my faith in her as well.” The SCP teleported again, this time next to him while holding out a hand. “Now then, shall we rejoin them? I am intrigued on what challenge your friend wishes to issue me.”

Hajime took the hand, squeezing it gently. “Something tells me you will master these games in a matter of minutes. So yes, let’s go. We have a whole day to enjoy.”

Three cheers for SCP Nagizuru! For he has made a glorious return! We can rejoice!!!

I love writing both Lighthouse au and SCP au Nagizurus. They are incredibly fun. And I hope they are fun for y’all as well.

As promised, this one is more cosmic being powers. What will it be this time?

Hajime found himself getting impatient for quite an odd reason. A reason that most others were thanking whatever deities they believed existed for. There had not been a containment breach yet.

Now, Hajime wasn’t wishing for the death or destruction that typically came along with the breaches. Just the breach itself, as it would allow Nagizuru to sneak them away from the facility to visit his friends and family back home.

However, the facility remained as secure as usual. Nothing out of the ordinary had occurred.

His annoyance was noticed, as he soon felt his companion begin running his hands through the spiky brown hair. “Relax, darling. It will come one day. No need to fret or worry.”

Hajime sighed as he closed his eyes. “I know. I know. But it still doesn’t lessen my eagerness.”

He heard a soft laugh behind him, tickling the back of his neck. “And you call me impatient.”

Hajime scoffed. “Don’t try that. We both know you are far more impatient than me. Remind me of who can’t go even half an hour without seeing me?”

The entity hummed. “You can’t blame me for being so desperate to stay by your side. You are simply perfect for me.”

The human rolled his eyes, though he couldn’t deny that his cheeks reddened a bit from the words. Never before had someone declare their devotion to him. It was… flattering, and he enjoyed it a lot.

He felt Nagizuru grin behind him, lowering one of his hands to grasp the human’s own. “Now tell me, my dear. What would you like to do today?”

“Hmmm…” Hajime stared up at the ceiling as he thought. “Honestly, I don’t really want to leave our place today. I don’t feel like walking around.”

“A lazy day in, is it? I am more than happy to oblige. I shall take care of chores, so relax and do what you like,” the SCP told him.

“Geez, having powers sounds pretty convenient. Is there any limit to what you can’t do?” Hajime asked without really thinking.

“Oh? Are you curious about my abilities?” Nagito asked, pulling his arms and hands away from the human to his slight dismay. “I am capable of much. Almost anything your mind can conjure up. For example…”

The large mass of warmth behind him vanished suddenly, leaving his back cold and his mind confused. “Nagizuru? Are you still here? What happened?”

“You will see.”

The voice wasn’t spoken out loud. He felt it echo in his mind, like it was transmitted directly into his brain. But before he could ask why this method was chosen to communicate, the reason was soon revealed.

A large, white rabbit with glowing red eyes hopped next to him on the bed, staring up at him with a nose twitch.

Hajime stared back with wide eyes. “Wh-what? Is… that you?” was all he managed to say.

A wide smile grew on the rabbit’s face. A sight that looked unsettling from how abnormal it appeared. “What have I told you about underestimating me? I can do more if you wish to see.”

The rabbit turned and hopped off the bed, body growing much larger as it moved through the air. Soon, a giant white tiger with red stripes was standing in front of him.

Hajime barely swallowed back the yelp at the sight of such a large creature. “I… I didn’t know… they were that big,” he said, body instinctively stiff from fear.

Again, the entity's current form grinned, the predator’s sharp white teeth on display. “No Earthly animal or cosmic creature is beyond my capabilities.” The tiger crouched down and began to leap, body shifting in midair again. Hajime couldn’t help closing his eyes and bracing for impact. But instead of something large, he felt a tiny body make contact with his hair. He cracked open his eyes, widening them when he saw a small white bat hanging down in front of his face. “It is nice to see you from varying perspectives. You are wonderful to look at even when upside down.”

Hajime ignored the tugging on his hair antenna where the bat was hanging from to focus more on the mischievous entity. “You really can turn into anything?”

The bat nodded. “Anything. Is there anything in particular you would like to see?”

The brunette had to force himself to keep his head still and not shake it with Nagizuru on him like this. “I can’t think of anything at the second. But I am curious about something. What’s your favorite form to take?”

“Other than the human form? I suppose there is one I have found that gets me the most attention and treats.”

The bat released his grip, shifting while falling. And soon, Hajime had a fluffy snowy cat on his lap. The feline purred as he settled down on the human’s lap.

“Ah, I understand now,” Hajime muttered, bringing his hand down to stroke the soft fur.

“Humanity seems to practically worship this species. Almost none were able to resist the charm when I approached like this. I found it quite fascinating,” Nagizuru told him, tail flicking in happiness as he relaxed into the pets.

“Yeah. Cats almost seem to have magic.” Hajime paused, thinking for a second. “They… don’t, right?”

The SCP on his lap laughed, clearly amused by the question. “No, they don’t. They are simply smart creatures. Though I will admit that it’s funny you asked.”

Hajime poked the entity’s head. “Well, you can’t blame me for being skeptical on occasion nowadays. I mean, there’s several facilities with objects and creatures that most would think too fantastical to be real. There’s a coffee machine that can produce magma, for example. Or that creepy teddy bear. Or, I don’t know, a clingy cosmic horror who’s first display of power to me was inverting a human. Shall I go on?”

The cat smirked at him. “You could if you so desired. But I understand the point you are trying to make.”

Hajime sighed, resuming his strokes. “Well, I suppose it is a good thing you were in human form when we first met. Otherwise, it would have been strange if an animal began asking me about my life.”

“Hmmm? I suppose that is true of our first direct encounter. But we saw each other before that rainy night.”

That made the human’s eyes widen. “What? I saw you before that night? How? What were you?”

“Multiple times. But I appeared like this.”

The cat shrank, the entity transforming into a smaller creature. One that fluttered up to rest delicately on one of his fingers. The butterfly’s wings were pure white, with the antenna and legs being red. It looked… familiar. But where had he…?

Suddenly, Hajime’s brain was flooded with memory snapshots. Of him in his college classes, staring out the window as his mind wandered away from the boring lectures. Of seeing a strange, white butterfly perched on the dying flowers outside of the math center. Of him wondering if it was the same one every day.

It made a fond smile grow. “So you were there. And I had no idea.”

The butterfly vanished and a heavier body landed on the bed behind him. The pale arms circling around him pulled him back into an embrace. “You had no reason to know. If I don’t want people to be alerted of my presence, they will never find out.” Nagizuru nuzzled into the brown hair, sighing happily. “But this body is my absolute favorite. I can do so much with you in human form. Especially this particular activity.”

A blush colored his cheeks at the actions and words. “S-so clingy,” he stuttered, trying and failing to sound stoic.

The SCP was not fooled. “Come now, Hajime. No need to try and hide it. You enjoy this, too. Don’t you?”

The last two words were whispered directly into his ear, sending several shivers down his spine. His reaction made Nagizuru giggle and hold him tighter.

Hajime grumbled, but didn’t protest or deny the words. They were true, after all. Not that he had any desire to admit it to the smug man behind him at the moment. But he didn’t mind spending time like this, especially with one so devoted. The days would certainly fly by, as he knew the entity had far more abilities he could show him. And he was eager to see them.
